Bobbi Brown
This is a brand that anyone can wear (I do) whether you're 15 or 55. The brand is primarily known for its natural, wearable, muted color palette and minimalist packaging.
Free shipping on $75 orders.


Laura Mercier
French celebrity make-up artist to stars like Julia Roberts and Sarah Jessica Parker, Laura Mercier is known for favoring classic, wearable colors over trendy, seasonal palettes. Known for her award-winning tinted moisturizer and "Flawless Face" collection of foundations and powders.


NARS
French celebrity make-up artist to stars like Catherine Deneuve and Madonna, Francois Nars is known for his fashion-forward -- often bold -- color palettes and award-winning blushes. The brand is now owned by Japanese cosmetics company Shiseido.


Bare Escentuals
Known for their feather-light foundation powders made from pure crushed minerals from the earth. Free of preservatives, talc, oil and fragrance.
Free shipping on $75 orders.


Shu Uemura
Says W magazine, "Before MAC, before Bobbi, before Trish, there was Shu. Shu Uemura, that is--the Japanese makeup artist whose minimalist packaging, rainbow range of colors and dozens of nifty accessories predated this country's makeup mania by a good two decades." Famous for his iconic "best in class" eyelash curler.


Paula Dorf
Like Bobbi Brown, Paula Dorf is known for her easy-to-wear, subtle shades.
